As someone who was always creatively inclined but hid myself away and suppressed my own voice for nearly a decade it has been so healing to put myself out there again and throw myself into experimenting with as many things as I can without shame! I love to keep myself busy and diversify my skillsets. Keeping myself intellectually stimulated is fulfilling to me and I wouldn’t have it any other way

One day I'm super into boxing, the next I'm buying a bike. I'm writing 1/4 of a screenplay, I'm learning to make 4-5 fancy cocktails. I'm ordering a jump rope, a kendama, a yo-yo. I'm attempting to learn tennis by hitting a ball against a wall for half an hour (once).
Picking up hobbies and then dropping them after a few tries is nothing to be ashamed of. It should not discourage you for fear of being called a quitter or flippant. The secret is knowing that you're better for getting out there and ceaselessly pursuing further opportunities for joy in your life.

Maybe more of "i wish i hadn't forgotten" how to play like a kid.
I wasted so many years taking my creative job (in fashion) so seriously i burned out. Now im an independent artist doing silversmithing and tattooing fulltime. I just learned the basics and the safety rules, and didnt bother to learn the traditional aesthetic rules . Im more relaxed and fulfilled, and people come to me for my style ♡
Here's my self-tatted leg. I add to it when i want to practice or try something new

My dad teases me about how when I was a little kid, my favorite thing to do when I was on the landline phone with somebody—be it a relative or one of my best friends—was to breathlessly describe the things that were in my bedroom so that they could have a mental picture of everything I loved and chose to surround myself with, and where I sat at that moment in time. Perfectly Imperfect reminds me of that so thanks for always listening and for sharing with me too 💌

I’ve been thinking about how much of social media is centered around curating our self-image. When selfies first became popular, they were dismissed as vain and vapid—a critique often rooted in misogyny—but now, the way we craft our online selves feels more like creating monuments.
We try to signal our individuality, hoping to be seen and understood, but ironically, I think this widens the gap between how others perceive us and who we really are. Instead of fostering connection, it can invite projection and misinterpretation—preconceived notions, prefab labels, and stereotypes. Worse, individuality has become branded and commodified, reducing our identities to products for others to consume.
On most platforms, validation often comes from how well you can curate and present your image—selfies, aesthetic branding, and lifestyle content tend to dominate. High engagement is tied to visibility, not necessarily depth or substance. But I think spaces like PI.FYI show that there’s another way: where connection is built on shared ideas, tastes, and interests rather than surface-level content. It’s refreshing to be part of a community that values thoughts over optics.
By sharing so few images of myself, I’ve found that it gives others room to focus on my ideas and voice. When I do share an image, it feels intentional—something that contributes to the story I want to tell rather than defining it. Sharing less allows me to express who I am beyond appearance.
For women, especially, sharing less can be a radical act in a world where the default is to objectify ourselves. It resists the pressure to center appearance, focusing instead on what truly matters: our thoughts, voices, and authenticity. I’ve posted a handful of pictures of myself in 2,500 posts because I care more about showing who I am than how I look.
In trying to be seen, are we making it harder for others to truly know us? It’s a question worth considering.
